Hello and welcome, Vodkatini. It'd be handy if you could put your location into your avatar or signature so that we know where it's snowing.

Thanks T.M

Heavy snow forecast for Solihull on Wednesday, as per the latest Met Office update:

 

 

Trouble is, in my experience these forecasts tend to chop & change several times a day 

 

PS good to have you back onboard, Andy

Too late, we've claimed him as one of our own and dragged him to our snowless lair that is the SW/Central thread, where he'll have to make do with one snowflake every couple of years

Time to launch a rescue mission for poor old Andy, before it's too late!

 

Cover me - I'm going in.....

Light snow begining to show in Brum

Liam Dutton's latest tweet suggests nothing major with regards to sleet and snow this week. The BBC week ahead forecast ealier suggested the same. It's things like this from the mouths of real professionals that cause me to lower my expectations. The computer generated forecasts and model outputs just help with the general trend.

 

We shall see and as I said earlier, I'm going into this week with an open mind as things do change rapidly.

 

It's reminders of the past when things have suddenly looked better or worse out of nowhere that makes every possible snow event exciting.
